Let's play it safe, stick with 6, pick up the best KPF available, consider Petracca the new boom recruit, and open up the mythical war chest next year for whatever we deem to lack. I'm a bit weary of being too aggressive for a speculative kid.

Very Very smart post we have a new kid in truck we desperatly need a KPP for Hoges well said Edited by Middymalt

Any kid we get at ND6 who is above 6'4 won't be able to help Hogan for a few years...

is that necessarily an argument not to do it however ? Just asking

The Roos way us to bring in players to fill specific roles. I would have thought we would go this way. Possibly Goody and Macca prefer to hone some sapling into that player. Just a thought.

Can we temp fill the assistant fwd role til a newbie develops ?

We're not going to perfect a side in 2015/2016

All that said id be surprised of we have a decent pick if it doesn't go to a 185 sized prototype style mid who a foity talent first...athlete 2nd

Not everyone's going to have Pretrac's build at 18.

Wasn't Fyfe overlooked on the basis of his thin wirey frame?

And the fact he was on a undersized forward flanker who was a great contested mark.

Nobody foresaw him becoming a dominant mid, not even Freo.

Well Francis is 6.36 foot tall (192cm) which might as well be 6'4. Given his mobility and ability to play on a flank/midfield I'd say that he is more than capable of playing a role next to the Hulk given his marking ability

If pick 5 goes to the Suns that increases our chance of being able to get him also.

Take a stab? Well considering the club has those players in its sights isn't a stab as such, just a scope of the players were talking to. I'd say Gaff or Prestia most likely, and Parker not Hannebury my mistake - jet lag issue there I'm afraid, I'll edit if can be bothered, it's 5pm here in NYC & I'm feeling "meh"..

Ah jetlag, that explains your post then, ok.

Parker - not Hannerbury - I see. Yes, all four of those players have been talked about, so we will see in 12 months time I guess, not soon. I'll 'take a stab' and pick Prestia.

Do keep the positivity coming though to restore some balance.

If you weren't all so desperate you'd realise that Nudge is not referring to this trade period but the future. Soon for you blokes in the life of a rebuild in next Wednesday, the 'soon' that Nudge refers to is within the coming years.

Yes I gathered that fork, thanks for the appraisal on being desperate champ. That's a first.

True, but better to grab one now than pay extra later.

If we're to keep Dawes and Pedersen, I'd be more comfortable knowing there's a quality young tall developing in behind them.

Think if someone like Weideman has a year to develop, he might be able to start making some meaningful contributions in year 2.

Bell can play. I thought he had a solid year, improving type, was one of Carlton's best players this year.

I think they'll regret letting him go, and he will be a good pick up for Brisbane.

Gets the ball and then butcher's it.

Bell is returning to QLD as his father is very unwell.

Carlton would be shattered that he is leaving but good on them for not making life difficult for him.

His dad has cancer and there is no one left to look after his other siblings up in Brisbane.

Im pretty sure Carlton let him go for family reasons and nothing else.

If we're able to upgrade to pick 8 which means we have picks 6 & 8 does anyone see the possibility that we could get both Curnow and Francis.

That would be a dream for me

Probably more likely to get Curnow and Weideman.

Francis probably gone by our first pick.

With the report on the latest multi trade deal, we weren't apart of it.

St. Kilda give pick 5 to Port. In exchange for pick 10 and future first round.

Port then use the pick 5 plus 19 to the Suns for Charlie Dixon.

Suns then have Pick 3, 5 16 & 19

Now if we couldn't come to some arrangement between with those numbers on the table, we'd be mad.

Surely we could get 3 & 19 for 6 and a pick 3rd rounder of ours. Is workable.

We then have Curnow as a lock in the Draft.

Until we get something for Toumpas I don't know what we can offer Pies for Kennedy, or GWS for Bugg.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
